Data Intensive (Science) Applications
• 1) Data starts on some disk/sensor/instrument
– It needs to be partitioned; often partitioning natural from source of data
• 2) One runs a filter of some sort extracting data of interest and (re)formatting it
– Pleasingly parallel with often “millions” of jobs
– Communication latencies can be many milliseconds and can involve disks
• 3) Using same (or map to a new) decomposition, one runs a parallel application that could require iterative steps between communicating processes or could be pleasing parallel
– Communication latencies may be at most some microseconds and involves
shared memory or high speed networks
• Workflow links 1) 2) 3) with multiple instances of 2) 3)
– Pipeline or more complex graphs

•
Overhead
f
= (PT(P)/T(1)-1) = (1/
-1)
is linear in overheads and usually best way to record results if overhead small
•
For MPI

•

Gene Sequencing Application
• This is first filter in Alu Gene Sequence study – find Smith Waterman dissimilarities between genes
• Essentially embarrassingly parallel
• Note MPI faster than threading
• All 35,229 sequences require 624,404,791 pairwise distances = 2.5 hours with some optimization
• This includes calculation and needed I/O to redistribute data)
Parallel Overhead =

CAP3 Results
• Results obtained using using two clusters running at IU and
Microsoft. Each cluster has 32 nodes and so each node has 8
cores. There is a total of 256 cores.
• Cap3 is a sequence assembly program that operates on a collection
of gene sequence files which produce several output files.
• In parallel implementations, the input files are processed
concurrently and the outputs are saved in a predefined location.

Why Gather/ Scatter Operation Important
• There is a famous factor of 2 in many O(N2) parallel algorithms
• We initially calculate in parallel Distance(i,j) between points (sequences) i and j.
– Done in parallel over all processor nodes for say i < j
• However later parallel algorithms may want specific Distance(i,j) in specific machines
• Our MDS and PWClustering algorithms require each of N processes has 1/N of
sequences and for this subset {i} Distance({i},j) for ALL j. i.e. wants both Distance(i,j)
and Distance(j,i) stored (in different processors/disk)
• The different distributions of Distance(i,j) across processes is in MPI called a scatter or gather operation. This time is included in previous SW timings and is about half total time
– We did NOT get good performance here from either MPI (it should be a seconds on Petabit/sec Infiniband switch) or Dryad
SALSA
High Performance Robust Algorithms
•
We suggest that the data deluge will demand more robust algorithms
in many areas and these algorithms will be highly I/O and compute
intensive
•
Clustering N= 200,000 sequences using deterministic annealing will
require around 750 cores and this need scales like N
2SALSA
High end Multi Dimension scaling MDS
• Given dissimilarities D(i,j), find the best set of vectors xi in d (any number)
dimensions minimizing
i,j weight(i,j) (D(i,j) – |xi – xj|n)2 (*)
• Weight chosen to refelect importance of point or perhaps a desire (Sammon’s method) to fit smaller distance more than larger ones
• n is typically 1 (Euclidean distance) but 2 also useful
• Normal approach is Expectation Maximation and we are exploring adding deterministic annealing to improve robustness
• Currently mainly note (*) is “just” 2and one can use very reliable nonlinear
optimizers
– We have good results with Levenberg–Marquardt approach to 2solution
(adding suitable multiple of unit matrix to nonlinear second derivative matrix). However EM also works well
• We have some novel features
– Fully parallel over unknowns xi
– Allow “incremental use”; fixing MDS from a subset of data and adding new points
– Allow general d, n and weight(i,j)
– Can optimally align different versions of MDS (e.g. different choices of weight(i,j) to allow precise comparisons
SALSA
Deterministic Annealing Clustering
• Clustering methods like Kmeans very sensitive to false minima but some 20 years ago an EM (Expectation Maximization) method using annealing (deterministic NOT Monte Carlo) developed by Ken Rose (UCSB), Fox and others
• Annealing is in distance resolution – Temperature T looks at distance scales of order T0.5. • Method automatically splits clusters where instability detected
• Highly efficient parallel algorithm
• Points are assigned probabilities for belonging to a particular cluster
• Original work based in a vector space e.g. cluster has a vector as its center
• Major advance 10 years ago in Germany showed how one could use vector free approach – just the distances D(i,j) at cost of O(N2) complexity.
• We have extended this and implemented in threading and/or MPI
• We will release this as a service later this year followed by vector version
SALSA
